Goole got a <lab of iron weighing fifty pounds nd attached it to Hanson’s leg. | Hanson was to drop off the pler in fifteen feet of water, sit on the slab until all under water records were broken and, when this was accom- plished he was to cut with a knife he held in his hand, the cord that fastened the iron to his leg. Time- keepers werc appointed and soon 1ll was ready. Then some fright «d spectator ran and informed Sergt. McCafirey of the Chicago ave- nue police, who burst into the throng and arrested Goole. “Attempted murder.” announced Sergt.

Alvin didn't have even an umbrella, much less an injunction, to protect him from skywater. Nevertheless, he stuck "y his post, or, to be technically accur: his pole, and today the sun was shining agaln. The supreme court this afternoon will decide whether to make per- manent the temporary injunction re- straining Mayor Frank X.

The Japanese government has | been sending troops to Tsinanfu and Tsingtao in both of which cities the Japanese have extensive interests. Both cities, for some time, have been the object of a drive by the nationalists who seek their capture as part of the larger plan to take | Tientsin and Peking itself. A Reuter dispatch from Tsingtao vesterday said that 2,000 Japanese troops had arrived here from Dairen | and that the situation was quiet. The note, which was made public this afternoon, expresses astonish ment that the protests of the Chinese | government regarding the dispatch |of Japanese troops to Tsingtao have | nct received “due attention” by the Japanese government. On the contrary, the note alleges, the Japanese took advantage of the | dgfection of some of the troops of | General Sun Chuan-Fang, the nort ern commander in Shantung, to di patch Japanese troops to Tsinanfu from Tsingtao and to replace them with fresh troops from Dairen. The note declares that the Jap- anese government, which has con- stantly profes friendship with | China, has thus ignored China's pro- tests and has committed acts of vi- olation on Japan's treaty obligations and Chinese sovereignty.
